Recent posts (As well as the actions which inspired them) by fellow bloggers inspired a recent decision of mine to make a list of five small goals for the fall. These goals are all related to self improvement, think "New Seasons Resolution" (Corny, but the best I can come up with right now). I realize that I have trouble committing to smaller tasks. Major things, which are more regimented going to work, going to school, etc. are easy for me to follow, but there have many times where I decide I want to change something and do not. So these are five things which I hope to accomplish by the winter solstice...(Yes, I said winter solstice)
1. Read the newspaper everyday (one article or cover to cover, I'd like to be more aware of what's going on in the world).
2. Exercise at least 4 times per week (I slacked this summer)
3. Dedicate at least a half hour per day for myself (The first two activities can be included)
4. Save money (I am going to draw up a budget once I have a better idea of what my pay checks will be like).
5. Continue to work on improving my French (This and goal number 4 will work together towards my ultimate goal to go back to France and meet (and converse with) my long lost relatives).
So hopefully these will be accomplished with the cooler air, changing of the leaves, and best of all...Pumpkin Spice Frappuccinossssssssssss!
P.S. Check out Sigur Ros, if you haven't already...not new music but new to me and I'm digging it!

nice set of goals, Kate. Excercise is one of my fickle friends...we just don't seem to get along at all. Enjoy reaching your dreams.
And thanks for reminding me about my favorite starbucks treat! you seriously made me grin from ear to ear!
Great goals, Kate. See my previous post on making our goals SMART. You'll appreciate it, I think.
Good Luck!
Good luck on your goals Kate! They are really good ones and they are ones that you can't def. accomplish!
i felt a twinge of guilt with the exercise one as i am sitting on my butt eating rita's for the 2nd day in a row, because there was a rita's right by the school i had to go to for training. i figure i don't get to have it that much since they closed the one by us...
